An obese client who has been diagnosed with peripheral artery disease (pad) should be advised to do which of the following?
select one:
a. avoid aerobic exercise for lower extremities.
b. substitute self-myofascial release for static stretching.
c. focus on resistance training so leg pain will not limit exercise.
d. strive for 20 to 30 minutes of continuous aerobic exercise daily.

Option D, strive for 20-30 minutes for continuous aerobic exercise daily

Explanation:

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is caused by development of  plaque in the arteries which is commonly termed as atherosclerosis. The plaque reduces or limits the flow of blood which can leads to failure of organs such as kidney, may cause foot or leg amputations, and in severe cases PAD may cause heart attack, cardiac arrest or stroke. In general, a person with PAD is recommended to do treadmill walking as it allows the better flow of blood which was earlier restricted by the plaque

Hence, option D is correct
